Transgender and transsexual people: What is the difference between them?


TS dating has become an interesting way of dating, which are more and more welcomed these years. The more interested people are to it, the more questions need to be answered. First of all, let’s be clear with the difference between transsexual and transgender before talking about the various sexual preferences, hoping that transsexual dating will become more and more common.

What is transsexual people? Although transsexual and transgender can replace each other sometimes, they are actually two different things, because s*x and gender are different. The frontier one refers to one’s genitals and the form it is used. While gender refers to the social recognition that is accepted by society, that is male and female. Transsexual people are not happy with their body. This usually takes a whole transition procedure, that is, gender reassignment surgeries. The gender they are born to be are in contradictory with the gender they psychologically recognize themselves to be. To live peace with themselves, they need to change their gender.

What is transgender people? Transgender people will not change their physical gender, that is the one they are born to be, but the dressing style and behavior are in accordance with the gender they feel comfortable with. They choose to keep their natural genitals, but live in their opposite gender. For example, some males dress like females, wear makeups, keep long hair. Or a female wear male clothes with short hair. Some might be going through gender dysphoria during the process. Thus, some of them choose to make the complete transition to be the gender they feel comfortable with both psychologically and physically, while some choose to publicly live in the way they want without getting rid of their genitals. No matter what, their gender identification cannot decide their sexual orientation. This is another completely unrelated field to talk about.

What is the orientation for transgender and transsexual people? If you are interested in lgbt dating, you need to know that not all of them have unitary sexual orientation. More importantly, some of them prefer to leave gender aside when they are looking for partners. That is to say, some of them do not have certain preferred gender. They are more inclined to the personalities of the person. Gender might not be their top concern. For example, they might choose partner according to their likes and dislikes, similar interest, experiences, characteristics, etc. Before you date a ladyboy person, you should know that every transgender person is different. They have their own position for their gender identification and sexual orientation. They might not be in comply with the norm you get used to. Unless they clearly state their gender identity and sexual preferences, you should better ask them first with respect. Otherwise you might be wasting your time. If you are hoping to be treated with honest and respect, remember you should do the same to them first.
